wrap_txt(txt, max_width, hard = FALSE)

Arguments

str

character(1). String to be wrapped

max_width

numeric(1). Maximum width, in characters, that the text should be wrapped at.

hard

logical(1). Should hard wrapping (embedding newlines in the incoming strings) or soft (breaking wrapped strings into vectors of length >1) be used. Defaults to FALSE (i.e. soft wrapping).

txt

character. Vector of strings that should be (independently) text-wrapped.

Value

A string (wrap_string or character vector (wrap_txt) containing the hard or soft word-wrapped content.

Details

Word wrapping happens as with base::strwrap with the following exception: individual words which are longer than max_width are broken up in a way that fits with the rest of the word wrapping.
